Hide Duplicate Crossposts? - eviltoast

Is there a way to hide posts that have identical titles on identical sibling communities? My feed gets cluttered really fast when I’m subbed to a big community on two different instances because people often crosspost. I’m tempted to leave one, but I don’t want to miss anything.

    I thought Lemmy already supported smart crossposting? You make one post, and then use the crosspost button (which isn’t in Sync yet I don’t think) and then you just have one post in your feed with a little link on it to the crossposts.

    Or did I imagine that?

    I guess it doesn’t do anything for people just posting the same thing twice to different communities.

      I don’t think any app supports built in lemmy crossposts. I wouldn’t be surprised if people who joined after the lemmy app explosion don’t even realize it exists.
